This calendar was made by Adventist students from the data of first century Jews and Christians. Although it is different from other common Jewish calendars, it is based on the biblical record, history, the spirit of prophecy, and astronomy, thanks in part to the work of Grace Edith Amadon. It serves as a benchmark and witness. Discover the life of Jesus and precious words of God in the "Restored Biblical Calendar.
In this version of the calendar, the days of the week, beginning with Sunday and ending with Saturday, are indicated in Kikongo. This language of the ancient Kongo Kingdom, or Kakongo, bears many similarities to Paleo-Hebrew. It has the astonishing ability to bring to life the story of creation by simply counting from 1 to 10. Indeed, each number n, in addition to representing a numerical value, conveys a meaning that corresponds to the n-th word spoken by God, in strict accordance with the biblical text in Genesis chapter 1. What's more, in Kikongo the names of the days of the week are the numbers 1 to 7. And remarkably, these carry an additive meaning, summarizing the work accomplished by God on that day. For example, the number 7 in Kikongo is called "Sambuadi", which literally means: blessing, sacred, rest and pause. In addition to these noteworthy linguistic observations, the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet is present in the frescoes of the Lovo massif in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
